Load and Replace Supplies

To prepare the printer to print cards, load blank card stock into the input hopper, and load print
ribbon and a cleaning sleeve onto the print cartridge.

Load Cards

If you plan to insert cards into the printer manually, skip this step and keep a supply of blank cards
near the printer.
Cards can stick together. Slide or fan the cards to separate the edges before placing them in

the input hopper. Handle cards by their edges only, or wear gloves.
Insert ISO magnetic stripe cards with the stripe (back side) facing down and to the right.

Insert smart cards with the smart card chip facing up and toward the back of the hopper.

A diagram inside the input hopper shows the correct orientation for each type of card.
